After all that testing, Carmex has proven to be the most satisfying for me. I've gone through countless tubes over the years. My criteria for a good lip balm are: Does it melt well with body temperature? Does it absorb without feeling like it's just sitting on the lips? Is it sufficiently hydrating? Does it avoid excessive shine? Is it non-sticky? How long does it last? Carmex checks all these boxes. It melts nicely with body heat, absorbs well, provides great hydration, gives a natural look (not too oily), isn't sticky, and has decent staying power. Plus, it's affordable! In winter, if you apply it before bed and gently wipe with a wet wipe in the morning, dead skin cells just fall right off. No need for fancy lip masks or sleeping treatments. The scent might be divisive, but it didn't bother me. I even grew to like it over time. The cherry flavor is quite nice - a sweet, pleasant scent. Unfortunately, it's not officially imported to Korea, but if you're willing to shop internationally, there's a wide range of scents and even medicated versions with SPF (if you're buying from abroad). This isn't a Carmex ad, I swear! Though I wouldn't mind if Carmex wanted to sponsor me... I'm a huge fan!
ConsIf only they imported various scents or an unscented version to Korea, it would be easier for me to recommend it to others. Most people seem to dislike it because of the scent.
TipJust give it a try...

It works wonders for healing chapped lips.
ConsIt's not ideal for exfoliating dead skin cells when applied thickly at night. The texture feels a bit stiff.

The scent is delightfully cherry-like!
ConsAfter using it for 3-4 days, the dead skin cells on my lips disappeared, so I have no complaints.

I think I've used over 10 of these already. It's more cost-effective to buy the 3-pack rather than individual ones. 1. Application: The absorbs is top-notch. It glides on like butter without feeling greasy. It leaves a slightly matte, soft, and hydrated feel. 2. Hydration: If the corners of your mouth are cracked or your lips are chapped, apply a generous amount before bed and it'll improve quickly. It instantly solves dryness. Also, if you apply it to your lips before sleeping, dead skin cells will soften. Gently exfoliate while showering, and you'll have brand new lips. 3. Scent: While the cherry scent is nice, I personally prefer unscented products. I don't think this product will be polarizing for most people.
ConsThe only downside I've experienced with this product is that if you don't close the small cap properly, the lip balm can get on the lid.
TipPersonally, I find the stick form more moisturizing than the tube form. While the tube form can feel a bit rich, the stick form doesn't feel greasy even when applied generously!

It's great to apply before bed, leaving your lips soft and supple by morning. Perfect for frequent application throughout the day.
ConsThe menthol scent might be divisive - some may love it, others not so much. Those with allergies should exercise caution.

It applies smoothly with a rich texture, but doesn't feel greasy, making it comfortable on the lips.
ConsThe case is a bit too small. It would be nice if they offered a wider range of tinted lip balms. Not a fan of the cherry scent.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsFirst off, I love that it's not greasy but still provides a nice, firm hydration. This firm moisturizing effect lasts for quite a long time (even after drinking water several times, it's still there). Great value for money too!
ConsThe scent is way too strong. In these mask-wearing times, if you apply this and immediately put on a mask, the smell becomes overpowering. You need to be careful with the amount you use. If you apply it casually like a lip balm, you'll end up using too much. It's better to gently pat it on instead.

Even after applying it and waiting a bit, I could put on matte lipstick without any shine. It worked like a lip primer...
ConsI used to use the Carmex jar type at night and the Carmex stick during the day. It was fine for a few weeks, but then tiny bumps started appearing along the edges of my lips...?!! I have sensitive skin, but my lips usually tolerate anything...? I stopped using Carmex and only applied Vaseline to my lips. Eventually, it got better. Thinking 'Surely it couldn't be because of Carmex?', I tried it again. After a few days, the same symptoms returned. Sadly, I had to throw it away...
TipI'll just stick to my usual routine - the Aritaum Ginger Sugar Lip Mask at night, and the Bioderma stick during the day...

Applies smoothly.. And it doesn't feel too rich either
ConsAfter using this, my entire lips were covered in blisters.. As you can see in the photo. The lip line became red and bumpy, and now it's spreading to the lip surface. I just read other reviews and realized it's because of Carmex. These symptoms appeared after only two days of use. Strangely, I didn't have this problem with the tube version. Switching to the stick form caused this disaster
